DYK for Roman Josi
On 1 May 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Roman Josi, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that defenceman Roman Josi is the Nashville Predators single-season points leader? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Roman Josi. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Roman Josi), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

WikiCup 2023 May newsletter
The second round of the 2023 WikiCup has now finished. Contestants needed to have scored 60 points to advance into round 3. Our top five scorers in round 2 all included a featured article among their submissions and each scored over 500 points. They were:
Iazyges (1040) with three FAs on Byzantine emperors, and lots of bonus points.
Unlimitedlead (847), with three FAs on ancient history, one GA and nine reviews.
Epicgenius (636), a WikiCup veteran, with one FA on the New Amsterdam Theatre, four GAs and eleven DYKs
BennyOnTheLoose (553), a seasoned competitor, with one FA on snooker, six GAs and seven reviews.
FrB.TG (525), with one FA, a Lady Gaga song and a mass of bonus points.
Other notable performances were put in by 
Sammi Brie, 
Thebiguglyalien, 
MyCatIsAChonk, 
PCN02WPS, and 
AirshipJungleman29.
So far contestants have achieved thirteen featured articles between them, one being a joint effort, and forty-nine good articles. The judges are pleased with the thorough reviews that are being performed, and have hardly had to reject any. As we enter the third round, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed in round 3. Remember too that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them.
If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. Sturmvogel 66 and Cwmhiraeth.

Pacific Division (NHL)
There has been a persistent disruptive editor from the Detroit and Oxford, Michigan area since 2021 that keeps adding irrelevant information to the article. Is there any chance that I can convince you to lock it for 6 months to a year, it is extreme but I don't think that a range block would stop them. Deadman137 (talk) 03:49, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
- Deadman137 I did PC for one month as they said on their talk page they wouldn't do it again. Let's see if this holds true before going further. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 22:17, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks, hopefully they can take the hint. If they cannot then a range block might be needed, but I'll wait and see what happens. Deadman137 (talk) 03:28, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
